Talulah, I'm still a child.

The taut rope suddenly loosened, and Warfarin, affected by gravity, fell uncontrollably. The key point is that she is now head down. If she were to crash directly onto the deck of Rhodes Island... well, the feast can begin.

However, just as Warfarin closed her eyes to prepare for the impact, she felt herself crash into something very soft. The expected pain did not come; instead, she smelled a very fragrant scent, a mixture of hot milk and osmanthus, which was unexpectedly quite pleasant.

"Dr. Warfarin, are you alright?"

Looking at Warfarin buried in her tail, the little fox twitched its ears and poked her foot. Because it had been too much to bear, the little fox finally put her down. Although Warfarin had chased her for a long time last night, Mei Xue hadn't expected that she would actually be hanging there until now.

"Ah...it's you. I'm fine."

After pulling her head out of Mei Xue's tail, Warfarin realized that it was actually the little fox who had put her down. Damn it, she should have taken the opportunity to kiss him.

"It's alright. I have to go to the Mid-Autumn Festival gala, so I'll be going now!"

Perhaps still worried that Warfarin would take him to get an injection, the little fox disappeared in a flash. These days he felt that Rhodes Island was quite dangerous. Although everyone was very kind to him, they all seemed to have some strange thoughts.

The Mid-Autumn Festival party on Rhodes Island, although called a party, is really just a simple gathering of people eating and drinking. There are no complicated etiquettes or procedures; the best thing is for everyone to eat and drink well.

Such parties are naturally a dream come true for certain foodies, like Xiao Ke.

"Awoo!"

Looking at the dazzling array of food laid out on the table in front of him, the silly little boy dressed in children's clothes let out a loud cry, attracting a lot of attention. He then rushed forward, grabbed a mooncake, and stuffed it into his mouth.

For Xiao Ke, whose digestion speed is even faster than her eating speed, the only time she was truly full was during the two days she spent with Mei Xue, because the little fox did not restrict her appetite. Although Rhodes Island provided food, lodging, and medical treatment, Xiao Ke's diet was still controlled, and she was not even allowed to enter the kitchen.

"Xiao Ke, eat slowly, don't choke."

Vulcan sighed and rubbed her forehead. As a Minoan, and out of curiosity, she was now Keobe's guardian, but this little girl, who lacked common sense, always gave her a headache.

Meanwhile, Linglan and the others, who had been searching for Mei Xue for a long time without success, decided to stake out the auditorium to see where the little fox was so they could quickly surround him and prevent him from being snatched away by someone else.

"Strange, where is Brother Meixue? Is it because he's too short to see?"

Lily of the Valley scratched her head, somewhat confused. With so many people around, Rosemary couldn't use her abilities to find someone. The five little girls could only walk through the crowd from beginning to end to see where Plum Blossom was.

Although the auditorium was large and crowded, Mei Xue's big white tail was still very eye-catching, and there was an easy way to find Mei Xue: just look towards the area with the older girls.

And so, Linglan and the others quickly spotted Mei Xue surrounded by Nian, Lin Qingyan, Chen Huijie, and a group of other Dayan people. The little fox had a piece of snow skin mooncake in its mouth and an apple in its hand, and it was hiding timidly behind Chen Huijie. Lappland and Texas stood guard on either side of it like protectors.

(Sure enough, if you go where there are lots of women, you can find Brother Meixue.)

Lily of the Valley and Rosemary frowned slightly in unison. Wu Lian looked at Mei Xue, who was hiding next to Chen Huijie, and then glanced at the group of women around him. She suddenly felt very unhappy. She had only planned to make Mei Xue fall on flat ground a few more times the next day, but now she felt that this was too easy for him.

"Brother Meixue~"

Trying to calm her restless heart, Linglan gave a charming smile, let go of Meixue's hand, and ran ahead of her, completely ignoring the extremely strange looks from Mimeixiang and Wulian behind her.

"Lily of the valley!"

Upon seeing that it was an acquaintance, the little fox wagged its tail happily, walked up to Chen Huijie, and opened its arms. The two little foxes hugged each other and rubbed against each other affectionately.

If it weren't for the fact that Linglan is still quite young, Chen Huijie would probably have frowned, but right now this silly older sister only has one thought: My Meixue is so cute.

Lin Qingyan subconsciously sized up Linglan. Hmm, she's very cute and will definitely be a beauty in the future. Her temperament and personality are also good. Most importantly, she's from the same volpe family, so she's a very good candidate as a sister-in-law.

So... be careful this little brat doesn't steal your little fox away!

"Mei Xue, is this your new girlfriend?"

Ling watched the two little ones with amusement, teasing Linglan while assessing the level of threat in his mind. Xi's mind was entirely on Meixue; otherwise, she wouldn't have come to such a lively scene. Nian, on the other hand, didn't care at all. After all, with Ling here, she, as the daughter, could only behave herself.

"Um...no."

Mei Xue quickly shook his head. He and Linglan weren't in that kind of relationship yet. After all, the little fox's current girlfriend was Remien, and his ex-girlfriend was Mostima. As for Ling... could she be considered his ex-wife?

"I... I don't have that kind of relationship with Brother Meixue."

Linglan blushed and lowered her head, subconsciously leaning on Meixue to avoid being stared at. She could clearly sense that these older sisters were not very friendly to her.

"And then what?"

Lappland said with a playful tone, a slight smirk playing on her lips. Lily of the Valley had a strong scent of Plum Blossom on her, the kind that was hard to completely mask even after a bath. She didn't believe that Lily of the Valley and Plum Blossom were just ordinary friends.

No, in the end, would anyone really be willing to just be ordinary friends with Mei Xue?

"Sister Lappland, you mustn't bully Lily of the Valley."

Perhaps sensing Lily's embarrassment, the little fox looked at Lappland with some anger. Seeing him wagging his tail and puffing out his cheeks, everyone felt that Mei Xue had no dignity at all. Hmm, we really want to pinch his cheeks.

So Ling, Lapland, Nian, and Chen Huijie actually got to work.

"Waaah!"

The four people's eight hands repeatedly rubbed Mei Xue's face, and every now and then another hand would take the opportunity to tug at Mei Xue's tail. Since the ones doing this were either their own older sister, wife, or children (no problem), the little fox could only let them do as they pleased.

Fortunately, these people remembered that it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, so they didn't get too engrossed in rubbing the fox. They just enjoyed it for a moment and then let go. But Mei Xue clearly felt that there was something new in her tail fur.

"Alright, alright, I'm just teasing you. Now that your friends are here, let's go have some fun."

Chen Huijie gently stroked Mei Xue's hair. She knew that Mei Xue was not used to this environment. There were too many strangers around, and too many people were looking at Mei Xue. Although the little fox could keenly sense the good and evil in others, she could not adapt to such an unfamiliar occasion.

"Hmm~"

Mei Xue nodded. He had originally planned to wait here for Linglan and the others to go out and play together. Now that he had found them, of course he wanted to go and keep Linglan and the others company.

Watching Mei Xue and the little girls leave together, Chen Huijie suddenly felt that she had made a wrong decision, but she couldn't figure out what was wrong with it, so she turned her attention to Lin Qingyan and the others.

Chen Huijie already knew that her little fox had many secrets and was involved with many people, but why were most of them women? Was Mei Xue's good luck also reflected in attracting the opposite sex?

In fact, Chen Huijie was unaware that among the women present, besides the Da Yan operators beside her and several people from Penguin Logistics, there were also many people from Rhodes Island.

Aya noticed Meixue leaving and instinctively wanted to chase after her, but then she wisely glanced at Kal'tsit and noticed that she had only been holding a wine glass the whole time, leaning against the table without saying a word or eating anything.

However, Aya knew that her teacher had feelings for Meixue, but she just wanted to chat with the Meixue brother who told her stories back then. Well, although her mother said it would be best to let Meixue go back and become her son-in-law.

(Could it be that Mom herself has feelings for Meixue?)

Suddenly realizing this possibility, Aya quickly shook her head. This was not an option. Although she had been an orphan and widow for many years and had received a lot of care from Meixue during that time, he was still Amiya's fiancé. How could she lay a hand on the little fox?

"Teacher Kal'tsit, won't you eat something?"

After thinking it over, Aya decided to try to change the subject by talking to Kal'tsit, but Kal'tsit just shook her head.

"I'm not hungry."

Not only was she not hungry, Kal'tsit's stomach was completely full. She regretted letting Mei Xue use her mouth when she couldn't fit down there. Her legs were so weak that she had to walk slowly and even had to lean on a table to stay upright.

(It's fortunate that Mei Xue simply didn't understand what this meant, rather than becoming completely absorbed in it; otherwise, the problem would have been much bigger.)

Kal'tsit took another sip of red wine, suppressing the lingering apple-candy flavor in her mouth once more. Meanwhile, the previously gloomy sky picked up a breeze the moment Mei Xue emerged, and moonlight occasionally pierced through the clouds, allowing one to observe the clouds rapidly parting.

Since it wasn't too cold, Mei Xue and the others simply ran to the deck of Rhodes Island. Perhaps because they were lucky, there was no one there at the moment, so they could enjoy the moon in peace.

"Wait for me~"

Mei Xue took out an apple and put it in her mouth, then took out several picnic mats from her tail and spread them on the floor. She also took out snacks and soft drinks.

"That's amazing..."

Popka couldn't help but exclaim that Mei Xue's performance was more spectacular than magic in her eyes.

"Lying down like this is definitely the best way to stay!"

Lying on the picnic mat with her tail between her legs, Mei Xue looked up at the double moon in the sky. In less than five minutes, the gloomy sky had cleared up and there was not a cloud in the sky.

Rosemary and Lily of the Valley secretly admired each other, then lay down on either side of Plum Blossom, leaving no space for their other sisters. This made Witch and Ifrit slightly uncomfortable, while Popka was still lingering in envy, wondering "why don't I have a tail like that?"

Since the little fox didn't know the other three people, Lily of the Valley and Rosemary introduced him to Witch, Ifrit, and Popka, emphasizing Witch's ghostly nature, Ifrit's love of fire, and Popka's immense strength, oh, and the fact that her eyes under her eyepatch can shoot lasers.

"Rhodes Island really does have all sorts of people."

Mei Xue twitched his fox ears. He suddenly felt that Rhodes Island was like a freak containment center, with all sorts of researchers and beings like Wu Lian who could deal with ghosts.

Of course, the little fox was completely unaware that it was the most incredible one.

"That little Moti is Sister Wulian's doll; she can even move on her own."

"……Um."

Wu Lian nodded in agreement with Ling Lan's words, then tossed the trembling little Mo Ti next to Mei Xue. This shameful thing made her very uncomfortable. It was just a little fox, wasn't it?

"Hmm...it looks a bit worn out."

Mei Xue twitched her fox ears. If she had time, the little fox would definitely have used needle and thread to help Wu Lian mend her ears. However, looking at the trembling little Mo Ti, Mei Xue was a little confused. Was he that scary?

"Little Moti has always been like this."

Linglan reached out and took the doll back to Wulian, taking the opportunity to move a little closer to Meixue, and quietly reached out to take the little fox's tail and hug it to her chest.

Ifrit was unusually quiet. She just looked at Mei Xue quietly. Perhaps because she had some of his blood in her body, she also had some improper thoughts about the little fox's tail. Why did she want to take a bite?

(Those three are a bit of a hindrance; we'll have to find a way to eliminate any potential problems in the future.)

Rosemary raised an eyebrow. Lily of the Valley was one thing, after all, they were comrades-in-arms who shared a bed and a bathtub. But if Wu Lian and Ifrit were there, Little Cat wouldn't be able to do many things she wanted to do, such as tying Mei Xue back to her dormitory for a chat.

What troubles Rosemary the most is Red, who has been secretly following Mei Xue for a long time, and it's not easy to mess with the little kitten.

Aside from Mei Xue, the other children chatted amongst themselves, each lost in their own thoughts. The little fox, meanwhile, looked at the two moons, one bright and one dim, and for some reason, suddenly felt that there should be someone else beside her.

Who could it be? It must be someone very important to him, otherwise how could he still remember her even after losing his memory?

Bonus Chapter: Happy Birthday~

At night, under a full moon, Mei Xue turned her gaze away from the moon and looked behind her, only to find her older sister smiling gently at her.

"Sister, what are you looking at?"

"Of course, I want to see my cutest little brother!"

The shapely Volper woman opened her arms and hugged the cute little fox. Although they were siblings born on the same day, Mei Xue was much shorter than Su Xue'er, and the little fox only reached her chest.

"Waaah!"

Buried in her chest and nearly suffocating, Mei Xue struggled instinctively, but in the end, she had no choice but to use the old method: she opened her mouth and took a bite, which happened to hit a rather hard spot.

"!!"

Su Xue'er's pretty face flushed red. She quickly let go of Mei Xue's hand and pushed her away. She covered her chest and stammered, unable to speak. Her ears were perked up.

"You naughty little brother, how dare you do such a thing to your sister!"

"...Why didn't you think of this when you bit me, sister?"

Didn't you feel good when I bit you?

Faced with Mei Xue's accusations, Su Xue'er shamelessly put her hands on her hips, acting as if whatever her older sister did was right. Besides, she wasn't bullying her younger brother; she was just helping Mei Xue relieve some of his physical stress.
